POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Evil poetry and morbid poems about death and horror
Hog Jaws
..like woodpeckers, they knock
then I am no longer alone
vacant eyes, hog jaws gaping
into my shattered mind
of unquiet grave, abandoned
without a flight of stairs
hog jaws gaping in dark fornication
then I am no longer alone
vacant eyes, hog jaws gaping
into my shattered mind
of unquiet grave, abandoned
without a flight of stairs
hog jaws gaping in dark fornication

Fin fiction
Her gown is most beautiful
horrific horizon
I have worn it many a time
totemic death maiden
carving myopic
eyesight
someone blew into
bewildered salt
preforming polluted
litany
watered
through an
oceanic
cymbal cloud
marshes wept dry
did we see to it?
passing on stories
the stillborn lands tell
do we hold these words?
into our lap
or
will we river
death
away
a lone foal wind plays
...

Softly, slowly as the light falls.
Light.
Every good moment begins with pure light.
But like the tides turning,
The light fades into night.
A simple change.
Its just one letter.
One rule changed.
One where all is and one where nothing becomes truer and deeper.
I open my eyes at last.
This year.
This day.
This moment.
I meet my friend again as I breathe in the stiff air of my bedroom.
Another day begun.
Another day to think, to dream, to be.
"You have much to do Mark."
I do!
"We should get up quickly so we don't drift...

desecrated
(Note to readers: overnight, I seem to have developed a profound injury to my right hand, so I've had to write a poem that just uses the left hand letters. Apologies.)*
beasts at seeded grasses grazed,
at vert swards, barbed warfare crazed,
bravest, wettest crawdads fazed:
zebra, badgers, steeds bedazed.
reeded area: waders tweeted.
vexed debaters cede, reseated.
steadfast traders swayed, retreated;
carers, stewards, beasts - defeated.
afterwards...
ravaged streets were desecrated;
trees,...

Time to discuss death with your child
Mommy, come look!!
Daddy pointed a gun at his face and fired it!
He won't get up
Mommy, he's funny looking, come look!

Consumes
A prison of gloom,
I'm begging.
I'm pleading.
Give something that'll bloom.
Oh, Lord, it's empty,
I'm saturated in nothingness,
Yet, everything at once,
I'm overwhelmed by plenty.
Writhe in confusion,
Thrash in fury,
I really can't keep this up,
I need a solution.
I'm being consumed,
The void terrifies me,
An abyss to escape,
"Too far gone," like I presumed.

Nightmare Within A Steam Room
Aurora opened her eyes and found herself
sitting naked in a sauna before the door
opened and some stud stepped in and sank his fangs
into her neck before she woke up screaming loud.

ghostly
she died a few days ago
they told me,
of a rare and radical cancer
in the common bile duct,
It saddened me to know...
after leaving her life...
"I don't need the man
but I want the poet."
she said then.
now she is dead
and I remain a poet
even though she doesn't know.
became the ghost muse
of what doesn't rhyme with me.
She died, they told me!

The Tragic Tale of a Young Girl's Body
She was young, just a tender age
Filled with innocence and wonder
Her body, firm and full of life's stage
But little did she know, she'd soon be torn asunder
She walked with grace and confidence
Unaware of the danger that lurked
Her beauty, an ever-present presence
But to the predator, she was just a piece of meat to be shirked
She knew not of the evil that lay in wait
As she strolled through the streets
Her mind filled with dreams and fate
But all those hopes would soon meet their defeat
He watched her from a...
